Dear Friends, As we move toward the end of the year, our hearts are full of gratitude for all that God has been doing in our lives and ministry here in Davao.

As promised in the last update -see what God did on our Thailand team last summer.  Thank You for Your Partnership! Dear Friends and Supporters, We are so grateful for your continued partnership in what God is doing here in the Philippines. Your prayers, support, and encouragement mean the world to us. You are an essential part of this ministry, and we’re constantly amazed at how God works through the body of Christ to accomplish His mission. Thank you for standing with us! A Look Back: Fruit from TEAM 4:5 In our last newsletter, we shared about our summer work through  TEAM 4:5 , a short-term missions discipleship program.
